My 19 yr old daughter had just been stung with a $3500 quote for a root canal and crown. Anyone know if there are more affordable options in Auckland or near? I’m gutted I’m not in a position to help her much with this bill. I’m putting off my own much needed dental work for the same reasons - the mind bending crazy amount it’s going to cost.
I’m sure it’s been asked before, but does anyone have any advice or recommendations for a cheaper, yet still quality alternative. For context she saw a lumino dentist in takapuna, Auckland ( bc they had a deal on the initial consult and xrays).
In doing some quick research this arvo I came across a 2016 herald article saying people were travelling to the regions for more affordable dental work, I’m wondering if that’s a viable option. Anyway many thanks if you can give me some advice. Poor thing was bawling on the phone today.
